SPOON! By now you may heard that The Tick will return to TV. Well at least to streaming video on Amazon. The true cherry on top of this delicious comedic superhero sundae is that the original Tick, Patrick Warburton will reprise his role. A role he played for a mere nine episodes (see video below).

“Warburton worked out a deal with Sony Television, who have held the rights since the show's 2001 cancellation, to bring back the beloved character as an Amazon pilot. With superheroes dominating on the big screen, and virtually taking over the small screen, there's no better time for a series making fun of them”. MSN TV News

What will this mean for the other actors in the series? Will David Burke and Liz Vassey reprise their roles as Arthur and Captain Liberty? I wouldn’t call Nestor Carbonell (Lost, The Dark Knight Rises, Bates Motel) a big star, but is he too busy to play Batmanuel? Only time and the all mighty dollar will tell.
